I think this song is amazing. Nelly has the most amazing way of making her lyrics sound so real. This song is about taking life for granted. Knowing that there are good things in your life and rushing throught too fast to see them. When she talks about dogs barking at the moon she means werewolfs barking at full moon their time coming to an end. Meaning that they are in a rush to get back to what they once was. Am I making any sense haha? Its basically saying that everything good in our lives is being missed because we are all daydreaming for a better one. Then those things will come to an end. It uses metaphors such like flames to dust meaning someones body being cremated or something being burned, something good and then being turned into dust. It also so says lovers to friends. Being lovers is so good but it always results in going back to being friends and so it has come to an end. Thats my opinion.
